  Twice Is Nice Thrift Shop

Our thrift shop is one of the principal sources of funding for Assistance League of Antelope Valley’s projects and services. Unlike some national organizations, our thrift shop keeps all resale items in our valley, and all proceeds go back to our local community.

Twice Is Nice is staffed by the volunteer members and by part-time employee(s). The shop has an ever-changing variety of second-hand goods for sale, including clothing, costumes, kitchenware, household items, toys, books, furniture and antiques. Resale items are donated by members and by people in the area. Your discards could be another person’s treasures.

Donate your old valuables anytime during regular business hours. Donations are tax deductible and sincerely appreciated. Shop at Twice Is Nice. You will find interesting and beautiful merchandise at bargain prices. Look for color-coded markdowns. Seniors 65 years and up, ask for your 10% discount everyday.

Visit our shop on 10th Street West between Avenue J and Avenue J-8, located in the front of the shopping center by Blimpies. Click here for a driving
